hang10tiki every day we looked forward to see what you had created, now we will look forward to a visit at Caliente. Fun times ahead.

Hale Tiki I always wish that everyone could be at every event. There is such a family reunion feel to these gatherings. As little lost tiki said it is a hug fest.

zerostreet photos are easy when the trip has so much to offer. You are welcome. We saw HB Tikis special zerostreet mug while we were there.

LoriLovesTiki I always look at event photos and feel the same way. It's fun to seeing people enjoying themselves.

Progress Report:

The best thing we did yesterday was to rest. We visited with family and caught up on TV. I did work for a couple of hours on the Sacramento Crawl mug. It is slow going with super hard clay but even so I enjoy doing it.

I started by adding a ring of clay and then attaching and smooting it.

Then I added clay to start to make the shape match the photo of the tiki.

Smoothing and adding more clay the knees start to form.

I added my name to the bottom of the mug. I've left space to write Sac Ohana Crawl and c 2013 on the bottom along with the number of the mug.

Here's a few more photos from our trip.

Far too large to fit in our car so we just brought home a photo.

We bought Sven's new CD and played it on the way home. Dan was so happy that the Hawaiian Eye theme song in a different version was included. It's a great CD.

My best overview of the large room, just think there were two rooms filled with venders and the restaurant and two bars. A huge event with lots of fun places to visit.

Of course I had to share my sweetheart playing a drum. He was giving a vendor a bathroom break. What a guy.

Now its time to get to work. Thank you for the visit, Wendy

lunavideogames I love seeing my things on eBay. I don't mind re-sales at all. Moai Mike bought two so he could sell one. Dawee Tiki bought 3 so maybe he'll put one up in the future. Dan buys and sells as he fine tunes his collection. Gecko is selling,
my sculpts his glazing, items on and off on eBay its all fun.

Atomicchick we are looking forward to seeing you. We all watched for you at Don's. I have the two packed to bring. So far those mugs are traveling as much as the pants that were in a movie.

littlegiles we all have tiki contacts where ever we go because of Tiki Central. All you have to do is pack put your trip on the events page and people will line up to entertain you. Just ask Swizzle.

So how do you feel about bellies and arms?

hang10tiki put Dan in a room with tikis and he's joyful. Your box went in the mail yesterday. 8 working days to arrive. Begin at START, don't lift your finger up, keep working the maze until you get to END. Good Luck. Thank you so much for all your posts. We smile all the time.

The sculpt I did for Roge has now been molded and has gone into production. It can be bought from him as a stand alone statue or as part of a tiki lamp. This is his Etsy sight. He also sells on eBay.

Yeah, Sorry Wendy. I didn't mean to sound like I was tattling on him for putting it on ebay. I just wanted you to see it, since you only sell on this thread, I thought you might miss it. I buy stuff and sell it for more everyday, and I am sure most of us do. I am interested to see how much it might go for. I personally have never sold a mug, but at some point I will have to get rid of some that I do not like as much so that I have room for new ones.

If you ever wanted to sell on ebay or make your own website, I would be glad to help you out. Just let me know. I have been selling on ebay since it first opened.

I received a lot of compliments on my Ms Pac-Man mug! I decided to drink out of it at the Tiki Marketplace. Even met a few people because of that. I like to use mugs as mugs, even if I don't use them all a lot. I feel like they should be used for the purpose that they were made. But I was being EXTRA CAREFUL with it and I found myself making sure I had a good grip and wasn't going to bump into anything. But, I don't know if I will be able to bring myself to drink out of the severed head. I just don't want anything to happen to it. Thanks again for the great mugs!
